Flights, help please!

Sophie and I will be choosing our seats very soon...I am trying to get a crew seat lol, just incase there is a spare trolley they want me to push lol hahahahaha.
.....getting so excited now!

 

Graeme we tried to pick the two-seaters at the back like you said, but they were all taken... BOO! ;D Ohh well we'll have to slum it! At least we're not on the wing! I ALWAYS end up on the wing (perhaps something to do with my surname??)

 

That's right, i went on the virgin site today and chose my seat. I've gone for a window seat near where you get on the plane because i'm sick of having to wait to get off because i'm stuck at the back.

Slightly OT but i need a flight from gatwick to Manchester around late June/ early july so i can visit my mum before i go to florida. who should i be flying with? EasyJet? I need a dirt cheap seat

 

ooo whats this about booking a return flight and just not turning up for the flight home, am i allowed to do that without being charged like an extra £300 (slight exaggeration i know ) i am so unfussy ill take any flight at the mo as long as the stop-over isnt over 12 hours (like the aer lingus flight that keeps appearing) xxx

 

...it could work out cheaper lol

 

lol you obviously can see i need a serious hand with this! i just always thought id be charged a penalty charge if i didnt take the return part of a flight id booked. every time ive looked return has been cheaper than single (really annoyingly )

 

I know I may be a little late posting this but www.lastminute.com www.opodo.co.uk and wwww.ebookers.co.uk are good for cheap flights, i mean seriously cheap flights!

 

karri, get the same one as me hehe

 

....yes they are great examples of just some of the site you can get great deals on flights, don't forget to have a look at the specific airlines website as they may be able to undercut the price.

I emailed STA TRavel but never had a replie
how bad is that?

 

hey daz i emailed STA and they took forever to get back to me too...with a REALLY expensive price (was over £550)...i was pretty annoyed especially as they say if you email before 5 on a monday to friday theyll get back to you in 24 hours. i wasnt overly impressed

 

im gonna try Virgin i think
ive found a flight for £360 not bad i thought.
STA are rubbish,2 weeks ago i emailed bad or what?

 

That's a very good price for Virgin, grab it quick

 

We didn't find STA that good either, they were fine when we booked it and said they had got us seats together as there is 4 of us flying together. But when I went to look where our seats were on the virgin website there were no seats booked!!
We managed to get 4 seats near each other, but thats not what we wanted, needless to say we wern't very happy with STA!!

 

i've had pretty good service with STA i've gotta be fair, but calls them as you sees them innit
maybe it's something to do with my cracking thighs...people can tell that from e-mails/phone calls right?

 

As Kirstie said before, they weren't great with the whole seat booking thing! Actually they were v v bad with that! But on the whole they were pretty helpful when it came to getting a good price/booking tickets, etc. I had to ring them a few times (spoke to Petra each time) and she was really nice. If anyone needs her number just let me know. Apart from you Matt, she said she's sick of you sending her pics of your thighs.

Just a word of advice for anyone booking Virgin seats through sta - go straight on to the website after you book and reserve your seats! x x

 

beth. don't start this again. jealous of the thighs are we? yeah that's it...

 

Just grabbing my empty pint glass...

 

i hope it's completely empty, with no dregs!

 

Haha the past like 5 flights ive been on ive ended up on the wing too
;l
its well annoying
you open the window blind and then BAM - a wing
no nice view
